Greetings @Community
Hope you’re all back from a nice summerholiday break.
Here’s an overview of what we have been working on lately during weeks 28 - 34 - and this release is a big one.
Features
-
Completely new view that we call Insights and it is packed with new functionality:
- Users are now able to change the Indicator and Unit directly in the Insights view. Want to see the emission in kgCO2-eq per square meter? No problem! Interested in the Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP)? We got you covered. We are continuously expanding both Indicators and Units.
- We made it possible to make filters to the Stages - which filters all graphs.
- A generic Excel export option that is not tied to any template, but simply just export the active Insights data.
- Cool animated and responsive graphs with a more calm colour scheme
- We now better communicate the mapping status for Materials and Transport (if added in the Project Settings) with some conditional colour formatting. The same applies to the Emission overview
- In addition to existing graphs like Emission Overview and Emission by X, Y, Z, etc. we now also show Project Data directly on the page which gives the users and viewers a better understanding of the basic data like Calculation type, Areas and Location.
- We now provide more information in the tooltips
The list might not seem like a lot, but trust me - we will soon expand the functionality on the Insights view with:
- Drilldown functionality
- A flexible, filterable and searchable Project Breakdown table
-
We have started the journey towards adding Iceland, Norway and Sweden to the list of supported countries by enabling address inputs for those specific countries.
-
Added more EPD’s to the Library which was requested by our user. You can do the same here: New Topic for EPDS Requests
Improvements
- The new Insights view is not only packed with new features it has also been optimized in terms of performance, speed and flexibility.
- The graph components has been changed throughout the entire platform.
- Improve the lifetime table so that the left pane is locked, which make it easier to read when scrolling vertical.
Bugs
- Fixed a bug where when the user changed the model in the Building Component Inventory the search is taken on to the next model without displaying it in the search field.
- Fixed a bug where the Valid to field in Material Creation was reset if the input form was invalid upon creation.
- Fixed bugs in EPDs.
Additional notes
- We released a How-To video for using ArchiCAD
